Burlington, KY Home Investigation 5/17/08

Ξ May 28th, 2008 | → | ∇ Paranormal Worlds |

At this private home in Northern Kentucky (southwest of Cincinnati), the son of a woman living with her elderly mother called us, wanting to have someone investigate what appeared to be paranormal activity in their late 1970’s bi-level home. The elderly mother of the woman living there, who happens to be deaf, was complaining of something grabbing and hitting her ankles at night while in bed sleeping, leaving her bruised at times, and sore the next day, as well as scared and frustrated. She also reported seeing apparitions of various men and women over time; a woman in a pioneer dress, a person in a “green hood or robe” with a “decomposing face,” as well as a “Fisherman type in over-alls.” She also told of a very bright light that would some times come through the cracks of the door in her bedroom closet. The grandson and daughter, both adults, also reported hearing voices and foot steps, and seeing shadows throughout the main floor of the home. No activity was reported in the bi-level home’s 1st floor. The man who called us also has a young son who stays there, and he has apparently also been “spooked,” and has an issue with one room (the one they fixed up for him there).

Hard to believe the stories, especially from a typical, late 70’s, 3 bedroom, 2 bath home with a fenced-in backyard…I thought.

Research really didn’t turn up much. The general area the home is located in, was notably populated going back to the late 1700’s, with record of the land the home sits on, being farm land for a long time. But again history was sparse regarding the actual property. It’s possible anything from a demolished pioneer or 19th century graveyard, to a Native Indian battle with pioneers took place here.

One of the most interesting things about this home, involved the neighbors, who had also complained of paranormal activity, some of them coming outside to get a peek at what was going on, when we were there. The activity appeared to be happening in more than 2 nearby homes, near the end of the street. Mike ran into some of the neighbors while walking outside, and while they were reluctant to speak of anything happening at first, he said they later started to open up and admit they had also experienced things they couldn’t explain.

Finally, I did get some evp’s on my video camera. A child’s voice is heard mummering on one file, and the other three evp’s appear to be an adult male’s voice, all having a strange quality to them, leading me to believe they couldn’t be anyone who was present. I also caught 2-3 IR plasma-like anamolies on video, that I have decided not to post, due to their quality being fairly poor as far as those particular things go. I’m nervous as it is about the orb photos.

I’m led to believe “something” is going on here, why would these folks make up these stories, in a home that really has no discernable history in particular, on a typical suburban street, and at the same time, we’re able to capture paranormal activity (regardless of the shock value) that backs it up? Validation is satisfying, no matter how sensational the results are. Picking up obviously unknown voices on digital audio in a home alone, lends some credence to these stories, not all of which may be true, but it really makes you wonder just which ones really are, and help to give these folks the comfort of knowing their experiences have basis in reality. These are very credible, normal people, who stand to gain nothing by sharing their experiences, like most of our private home owner clients. There’s more going on out there than anyone ever realized.
